The rule to remember:

  • Less than 20% ownership → cost method (only record when cash is received as dividends)
  • 20% to 50% ownership → equity method (record your share of profit/loss regardless of cash)
  • Over 50% ownership → full consolidation

Also important: this $15,000 is a non-cash item — Trans-Canada reports it as income but hasn't actually received the cash. So when calculating cash-based ratios, you'd subtract it out.
